If you actually enjoy learning, and real troubleshooting. Make the jump to commercial and or industrial work.

I was 21 years old starting out in resi. Did maybe two years and hated the work. Was going to just quit the trade and find something new.

If you’re in a similar spot that I was in, before you quit, explore the other avenues.

If you want OT and big paycheques, go for refrigeration. If you like a regular hours, plenty of commercial HVAC places offer that.

Can I run my evap pipe behind this, it'll be suspended in the middle of the wall with a clamp so it isn't just laying on the strut, boss is getting me to pro press it so I don't have to worry about brazing, I think it would look best but just worried about the legality

First time hitting freezing temps here in CT. Many calls. Go to the first one for upstairs no heat. Hydro heat. (Boiler with a heat coil in the attic air handler)

No voltage to the zone valve at the boiler. TO THE ATTIC!!! Zone panel showing no call for heat, of course the customer shut off the tstats….. why are people so dumb? How are you gonna have me try and find a no heat issue when the system isn’t even being told to make heat. Ugh.

Long story short. Installers installed a new AC and of course messed up the wiring on the heat side.
